(Plate XXXI. fig. 3d1.) Miletus gigas, Staud. M S . d 2 • Allied to G. gigantes, de Nicev., in size and form, but differing from that species by the basal area of the fore wing being greyish black, extending to tbe median nervules, and in the female reaching nearly across the white area to the apical black margin, and by the hind wings being uniform greyish black. The underside differs from 67. gigantes by the male only possessing rather larger white patches on the fore wing. Kina Balu (Waterstr.). Type Mus. Staud., Mus. Druce. _ This fine species can be at once distinguished from 67. gigantes from N.E. Sumatra by the black basal area of the fore wing aud by the black hind wings. The male of 67. gigantes has " a small portion of the base of the third median nervule prominently swollen ;" in 67. gigas this swollen portion is nearly i inch long. This is allied to 67. ancon, Doherty, but the description, however, does not quite fit it, notably as regards the " marginal dark line" on the underside, which is absent in G. gigas. The figure given by Mr. Doherty of the male is much like gigas $ . GERYDUS SYMETHUS. Papilio symethus, Cr. Pap. Ex. ii. pi. cxlix. figs. B, C (1777). Labuan ( Wahnes and Low) ; Sandakan (Pryer). The female from Sandakan has the white on the hind wing reduced to a discal streak and is very pale on the underside, but the markings appear to be the same as in the typical form. GERYDUS PETRONIUS.
